First time I've ever heard it live! Skynyrd stopped playing it as people would throw bullets onstage. Which means they had them...
Yet again, a great show. The Skynyrd / Kid show at Madison Square Garden last year was easily in my Top 5 Shows of All Time. That one was 4.5 hours of full-throttle awesome and featured Peter Wolf of the J. Geils Band doing 4-5 songs, Reverend Run giving Kid the DMC parts (while Kid wore a "White Boy" t-shirt) and was the first time EVER that Skynyrd played the Garden.
And this one did not disappoint. The midweek Kid / Skynyrd show brings out the best of Jersey AND rednecks - the mutants were on display... But the music was great, with Skynyrd rocking it (including songs from their new album "God & Guns") and Kid just cranking including 3 great covers:
"Everyday People" - Sly & the Family Stone
"Cat Scratch Fever" - Ted Nugent
"Tumblin' Dice" - the Rolling Stones.
To quote the Mighty SP, "Aces baby, aces..."
